Try building a mips-elf GDB with --enable-targets=mips-linux.  If you
are using kgdb and the kernel does not support the single step packet,
you will have to use 'set osabi GNU/Linux' when connected to kgdb
(I don't know if you'll need that or not).

They don't, you're looking in the wrong file.  See mips-linux-tdep.c.
